Gale had been forced down a poison, him gagging on it before his body forced it down. He fainted quickly, body trembling, groaning in pain. "Stop," Gale managed to groan, it just motivating to make the guards go harder on him. The next day they dragged him to the whipping post, tying his wrists to the post, his body sagging beneath them from exhaustion. Each time the whip snarled his back his body jerked, eventually stilling as he blacked out.

Kayla moved around the castle silently, watching from the woods as the guards shoved Gale around and whipped him. No, I can't let them keep doing this....but he said he'd be fine, he promised. Her mind was at war with itself as she paced, watching the love of her life slump uselessly against the post. "Fuck" She muttered, notching the arrow and shooting one of the guards. She moved quickly to a new position and shot another

Gale smirked as he saw a guard go down by a arrow, fwipping his head around, looking for the archer he'd taught. He acted weak, didn't really have to act, anyways, he acted weak and when they unbound him, he went more violent then he had in the arena, stabbing guards through their throats before walking off, unfazed. He picked up a limping jog, snatching a bow before darting out. Gale had numerous wounds but he eventually made it to Sage's resting point, slmping against the tree as the after effects of the poisons and beatings rode in, groaning lightly in response.

Kayla saw Gale take off, following but taking a seperate path so she wouldn't make too much noise. She climbed a tree probably a hundred yards away and hopped from tree to tree until she was directly above Gale. "You sound so enthusiastic, love." She said softly, her legs dangling as she watched him. "But i'm out of stitching supplies so until we walk to get some a ways away...."

Gale simply stayed quiet, keeping his mouth shut and jaw clenched. After a breath he gritted his teeth, speaking gruffly. "Wish me luck getting there, gonna be a struggle is all i'm saying." He mumbled, snapping his jaw shut once more as he doubled over, the poisons wracking through his body.

Kayla hopped down beside him, concern flashing across her features as she sat beside him and pulled him into her arms. She gently ran her fngers through his hair and pressed a kiss to his head. "I'm sorry they did this again"

"It's fine, i've been through worse. Surprised you've never noticed the scars." He muttered, the poison flowing through his system feeling as if it were twisting his guts together. "Don't know what poison they used this time, but it sucks. Only in day two so, day three and day four, might be asking you to kill me. I don't know, onyl time will tell."

"You know I would never kill you, no matter how much you pleaded and begged. I couldn't live with that on my mind."
|

"I know, personally I wouldn't kill me neither. If so then you'd rather go to hell then do so, the gang-camp, the camp would make you pay for it." Gale explained, slowly melting into her.

Kayla just nodded, holding him a bit tighter. "I love you more than I could ever explain." She said softly
